MONEY SMART CD LOAN

You can take out a loan for as little as $500, or more based on your ability to pay, then use the borrowed funds to open a certificate of deposit (CD) for the same amount. Just make fixed monthly payments on the loan, and when the loan is paid off, the CD with earned interest is yours!
